What to do in a...
Flood
- Store clean water in case water is contaminated
- Lift valuables and chemicals high above the floor
- Do not attempt to drive or walk through floodwaters
Listen to your radio
In an emergency your radio will be the best way to get updates and instructions. We work with Radio New Zealand, Newstalk ZB, Classic Hits, Coromandel FM, Gold FM, Kool FM, Big Valley Radio, and Nga Iwi FM
To find radio frequencies in your area go to frequencyfinder.co.nz.
Tip of the day
Have a plan
What’s your family going to do in an emergency? Who’s going to do what? Who is looking after who? Where do you go? How do you get there? How do you contact each other when not at home?
Print one off & make one this weekend!
